Lovely Del Monte condo nestled in the treetops in the active-adult community of Rossmoor.

Inside this charming one bedroom/one bathroom home you'll find a redesigned layout with a dramatic double-door entry to the generously sized bedroom and additional sought-after storage space added to the cozy Living Room. The Kitchen has been updated with a modern glass subway tile backsplash, stone counters, decorator light fixtures, and stainless steel appliances. With both a breakfast bar at the Kitchen island, and a spacious Dining Area, you have multiple options for light meals at home or family gatherings at the dinner table. An updated vanity in the bath matches perfectly with the shoji screen detailing at the large stall shower and laundry closet with a convenient stacked washer/dryer. The property is in pristine move-in condition with new carpet and fresh paint throughout and is ready for you to make it your own. You'll appreciate additional desirable features like the plantation shutters and a mini-split system for instant A/C and heat. Carport with storage just steps away from the home.

Cons
